Patrick Swayze is a bouncer/philosopher who teachers the bouncers of the Double Deuce the ancient art of bouncing, saves the town from a corrupt businessman, and falls in love with a female doctor who does a lot more than kiss on the second date.

I will always remember this movie for Julie Michaels, who played the trashy blonde. I was a young man in a time when naked ladies were more than just a Google search away. That strip tease is imprinted on my brain.

Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills. The people it kills, get up and kill.

Sooner or later. I absolutely had to review the original. It's a very fun movie, but the premise is absolutely ridiculous, and it is played perfectly straight the whole way through until the "Har, har, a bear fell on him." at the end.

The one who still catches my eye is the topless girl who winks at Sam Elliott while he is working at the strip club. Of course, she's probably around 50 now. Time and gravity are not kind to any of us.

My parents abosultely love this movie. I should probably show them this review.

Wow--one of my favorite websites (Badmovies.org) reviews one of my favorite movies (Road House) with references to one of my favorite artists (Springsteen) and one of my favorite books (The Great Book of Amber).

"A legend in the world of bouncers until he dies and passes into bouncer legend. "

lol

my cousin showed me this film on VHS when I was about 7 (he was about 15) and his mother walked in the room exactly at the first sex scene and it was promptly turned off. I never saw Roadhouse again properly until about 15 years later
